[@livhartmann2408]

Can we talk about the way Josh is looking on Olivia😍😂

[@rac2873]

She watches Matt she stares off she listens to Josh she tilts her neck and stares at him and laughs. She is just as flirty.

[@amangebremichael9254]

I don’t think that’s flirting please correct me if it is but I think he was looking at Shopia and Olivia every time one of them talks wasn’t Matt doing the same thing tho?

[@jennasaab438]

When I first heard of this i was like im not gonna watch this and it’s weird and I hate this then i watched the trailer and interviews and i now love this

[@kylamvickers3290]

I can see their pressure on how to fill up the original cast shoes with this HSM reboot.

[@nileyfan1998]

Its not a reboot tho? It's an entirely different show about a school putting on a high school musical play...m

[@MatgoStyles]

@@nileyfan1998 Yeah I hope people can enjoy this new show without getting tribal about HSM.

[@riodhnahennessy6425]

Matgo Styles yeah I'm enjoying it it's my favorite show I love it so much it's even my profile pic so it's really good but my sister says omg how can u watch this it's so bad and she says that about everything I watch and this is not it's incredible I used to love HSM when I was a child and now I love this I have all of the DVDs and know all of the words to all of the songs in the movies I'm not upsessed with it if u think I am I know this is a very long paragraph but I normally ignore the long ones but they actually turn out to be the most detailed and the most amazing ones so ok I should probably shut up now okay

i’m actually somewhat excited for this!!! especially since it isn’t a reboot, more like a throwback. since they are putting on the show instead of trying to make it anew. oh also fun fact- I HAVE A TON OF FRIENDS WHO GO TO ACTUAL EAST HIGH SCHOOL IN SALT LAKE CITY UTAH. i went to elementary school with lots of these kids and they go there now so like i could’ve gone there and it’s crazy

[@alineana]

Vanessa didn't dissapear... She did Broadway, indie movies, 2 live musicals and the trailer for Bad Boys 3 with Will Smith has been released today.

[@disata4797]

Corbin is involved in a lot of Broadway plays and performed at the Tony awards a couple months ago. Lucas goes to his shows and supports him. Ashley is working on releasing a new album and there’s a new Phineas and Ferb movie coming to Disney+. Monique was there to see Kenny receive is star on the walk of fame and she has a talkshow and was nominated for an Emmy. And Kenny just wrapped up with Disney’s Descendants.

[@livesnt1475]

Wow Sofia is sooo tall❤️

[@laylahjordan8294]

In my opinion I thinks theres a difference between having chemistry as an onscreen couple and a chemestry in both onscreen and off and when you see olivia and josh they have a great on screen connection and they have alot of chemistry off to and compared to othere actors and actresses it different on and off the camera so I think that they love eachother if that makes any sense...I dont explain stuff outside my head my brain works so differently than others...lol

Most people say that Sofia Wylie looks like Zendaya. However she looks more like Jasmine Richards from Naturally Sadie and Camp Rock 2.

When I heard they were gonna make a series version of HSM I was hoping Lucy Hale would be Gabriella or Sofia Carson

[@nityakaki466]

wow they both had their own cinderella movies

[@yoongituan]

lucy hale is 30......

[@roxannamartinez5153]

its not a new high school musical, it had to be high school teenagers because its about normal high school students trying out for the roles, they have their own characters you should watch the show its not what you expect its really good

[@MJ-hz6gh]

yoongituan and Sofia is almost 30 as well

[@mashedpotatoes5184]

IIIIITS BUFFFFY

[@lorenbowen916]

He's the what teacher 😐

[@budwood2539]

What you up love too school bud wood tr

[@sonyamohe]

Sofia definitely seems a little uncomfortable, she seems much closer with the andi mack cast

[@justanotherpersonxo]

The new actress that is playing the Gabriella of this show and the blond teacher give me a wierd vibe. I'm not sure why. There's something about them that is kind of odd and unnatural. I liked the trailer and looked forward to give this show a try though

[@itsokandres]

I was hoping Sofia Carson would play gabriella she would’ve been amazing in this

[@justanotherpersonxo]

@@itsokandres that would be good. But i think she is tryng to slowly distant herself from kid shows/Disney ney so i am kind of glad she is actually not in it.

[@Cloudykaterina]

I get it. The lead girl in the red pants just seems crazy fake. Like she has a mean girl vibe. I don’t know but theirs something weird about her

[@Cloudykaterina]

Jonathon Banasiak I know who Sofia Wylie is because I liked andi Mack but I’m 19 so I could never really get into the bissardvark show. It just seemed pretty immature and annoying so I never watched it.

[@Cloudykaterina]

Jonathon Banasiak I know but I think andi Mack got canceled because Sofia is doing hsm. I don’t think they would allow her to be on 2 different tv shows.

[@luwamalem9537]

Are these kids or adults, i don't get it! Lol, the way they speak & act! I'm just turned 21, & although, i would class myself as "mature" , i actually ACT my age & here, we have 15 year olds speaking like they lived soo much life! 😂 Acting really does make you THINK your older than you are!

[@sophiehider5872]

the one on the left (matt cornett) and the one next to him (joshua bassett) are 21 and 19, but yeah i totally agree, olivia and sofia also act really mature for their age lol

[@ameliaday7552]

Get your head out of your ass.

[@assholebyginger]

The male teacher is way too hot and young for his role, bad casting

[@sophiea5052]

Buy Cowboy by fx On iTunes young? I’m confused you can be a teacher fresh outta college and he isn’t even fresh outta college

[@assholebyginger]

@@sophiea5052 That's what I'm saying! He isn't even fresh out of college, he's too young for that role. And even though you can be a teacher out of teachers college, most are substitutes for a couple of years.

[@jadynd1237]

My sister is only 23, and she’s already a teacher. If you get through school quickly enough it’s an easy accomplishment. It’s not bad casting, you just don’t know what you are talking about.

[@MJ-hz6gh]

You seem like an idiot

[@andreadee4289]

Nah, I work in a school and one of our teachers started at 23. Sure she was a term for half the year but she was basically full time. Now she's permanent and only 24.

[@itsokandres]

umm did she just said HSM was a big part of their generation?? but they were only like 6 they were kids, they weren’t even in High School LMAO..and for sure they’re not millennials 🤫

[@kaytran4255]

Andres Castillo um it’s not millennials. The beginning of gen z also grew up with it. I grew up with it. I remember watching it for the first time when I was 5. I grew up watching the movies and all of Disney. I was a tv-fanatic. So you don’t have to be a millennial in order to have the nostalgia of these old movies/shows reappearing years later

[@itsokandres]

Kay Tran umm yeah it is you can deny it all you want but how can you relate to HSM when you were only 5, the movie was huge for millennials of course other generations watched it too but is not going to mean the same..don’t try to understand what you can’t simply because we are two different generations of course one better than the other smh

[@davie9944]

Andres Castillo that’s a really toxic attitude, saying that one is better than the other. As an older Gen Zer, these movies meant A LOT to me and all the kids my age, and we ALL grew up with it. Also, it’s Disney Channel. The point isn’t to relate to it. HSM didn’t appeal typically appeal to High School juniors and seniors at the time, cause it wasn’t made for them (not saying they couldn’t enjoy it). It was made for younger kids. Kids who were the age to typically watch Disney Channel. So don’t assume that the movies were more special to your generation, because, as you said, “don’t try to understand what you can’t”

[@kaytran4255]

Davie-The- Potterhead Exactly! Younger kids can grow up for hoping that high school musical life (though it’s kinda unrealistic in some parts). High school musical wasn’t just for high schoolers and I’m pretty sure there wasn’t an age limit on the movie lol. I perfectly understood what was happening when it premiered and because of that I was so excited for high school. It wasn’t aimed specifically for millennials, honey. You millennials need to get over yourself because you guys think that your childhood was so great because these movies and tv shows were only restricted to you guys but that’s not true.

[@kaytran4255]

Andres Castillo also I don’t think our generations typically define us unless you let it. For all I know you could barely be a millennial. Meaning, you were probably born just in time to be called a millennial. It’s not like an award or something. I’m still laughing that people like you guys are still out here telling gen z what they can or cannot say about their childhoods

[@randomtingz5593]

Why would they even make something LIKE THIS WHYYY THE OTHER ONE WAS BETTER
